*** OFFICIAL Steam Games Deals Thread ***

LFD2 group of 4 is on sale for $30.60->$7.65 per share if sent by paypal from bank account as gift.
I am not able to buy it myself but willing to join a group.

 

Me: "I kind of want L4D2, but I don't know about $20. Shame it's not $10 or $15."
Launch Steam today: "Left 4 Dead 2 for $10!" *trollface*
Me: " Get out of my head Gabe!"

 

I was thinking the exact same thing

Valve is awesome

 

Same thing happened with me on Dirt 2. I was talking to my friend about getting it but being too expensive one day. Then the next day it was 75% off.

 

anyone else find downloading really slow right now? Usually i download at 1.5mb/s, now its like 100kb/s (brutal!). Taking forever to download l4d2

 

Ya, steam must be getting bogged down with people downloading all the games they've bought from the sale.

 

always happens when there is a sale. you can try changing your server. go to settings-downloads-download region.

 

the witcher just went up in price to 13.99 (was 6.70).

steam sales are tricksy things after all.

 

Just when I'm considering just jumping on it... hopefully this is in preparation of it being a daily deal? Cut the regular discount so the daily discount seems like a good deal. Eh, I'm probably dreaming again.

Why can't it be L4D 1 that's $10?

 

*shrugs* it's 13.99. close enough imo

Save 33% on Left 4 Dead on Steam

 

Just got Supreme commander 2 and Force Unleashed for $15 total, sweet! (now I just have to wait a week for the force unleashed to download)

 

Anyone want to do the 4-pack on LFD2?

 

Sure, I'd like to get in on the deal.

 

Anybody got any word/hope if CODMW2 is going on sale?

 

Highly doubtful. Activision likes its money.

 

yeah i think i remember ready that Activision stated that they wont have any games on sale, but then again aint the COD set on sale?

 

yeah but not MW2

*sees flotilla for 2.50, bought it for 5 bucks earlier*


....

whelp. didn't think it'd ever get a sale. no biggie

 

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Instant No Button! Star Wars funnies FTW!

 

Has Global Agenda already been one of the daily deals? It is currently $26.79 and I don't want to buy it now if there is a chance of the price going lower in a daily deal.

 

i think it has already been a daily deal, maybe if it did well they might add it again near the end of the sales

 

Think it was one sale the first day of the daily deals

BTW has anyone played Kane and Lynch?
Is it worth 5$?
Heard it was a bad port

 

Woot! xD

90% savings on EVE Online.
Now im kinda regretting grabbing it for 15 USD (Before the new expansion).

 

Does anybody have any experience with the offline mode in Steam? I know you have to follow this process ( https://support.steampowered.com/kb_article.php?ref=3160-AGCB-2555), but it says to load up the Offline mode you have to connect to the internet first.

However, say you are on an airplane with no WiFi and you need to reboot/shutdown your computer (for some odd reason, or to conserve energy). Will the Offline Mode stay in place or do you have to repeat the above process to access it again?

 

You have to select to go to offline mode. Once in offline Steam will always start offiline. To go online again you have to start steam (offline, of course) and select to go online (same place where you selected before to go offline).

I hope this helps.

 

thank you, +rep

 

finally installed the first game that i got, Metro 2033 - Havtn gotten too far but so far all things positive about it, seems great the graphics are amazing and the story so far seems good as well gotta decide what to install next i have 26more games to chose from

havent taken much look at any more sales - Yet desperate for Empire Total War and Napoleon to be part of a day deal

 

How does that work? If I purchase EVE now, does the clock start ticking right away? Or does the game time only start counting down during play?

 

Yeah, I'm just hoping it might get reduced further since it's older than its sequel. I'm just being cheap as I'm sure it's well worth the current price.

In other news, another day goes by with no daily deals I'm interested in. Back to the waiting game for tomorrow's deals...

 

My Wishlist:

Metro 2033, CODMW2, Tom Clancy ... Conviction, Dead Space, Assassin's Creed 2, Blur, and that's all that comes to mind. (anybody have any suggestions?)

Already bought:

K&L, Max Payne Bundle, Lead and Gold, L4D2, RE5, Trine, Galcon Fusion

 

dead space had a sale during EA week. not expecting one here.

AC2 may get one.

Conviction may get one.

MW2. Knowing activision hell no.

Metro 2033 might get one too.

Blur may. not sure

 

Nothing that really tickles my fancy today.

Thank God.

 

I am hopeful for cheap Fallout 3. I was very tempted by Left 4 Dead 2, but having already played the first one I want to play something a bit different.

 

I think you missed the boat on cheap fallout 3.


that was during bethesda weekend two or three weeks ago ($25 GOTY version, ..uh...$10 or so oblivion, etc)

 

I think they start the clock as soon as you login inside the game.

 

Bugger....

 

Well there's a week left, so I am still hopeful

 

i have come across repeated sales guys so for those that missed the boat it might make another round so dont lose hope although i honestly cant wait to see what will be up on july 4th

 

right so the next game that will be installed is....NecroVision
Not many great games on sale, hoping that as we head towards the end of the sale that they will put on more stuff

 

I'm hoping Battlefield 2 will make it on sale again, missed it on EA sale day. Kinda suprised it's $30 on steam as you can buy it for $9 in store here in Canada, just having it on steam would be easier to do install and upgrades.

 

wow $9???
i havent seen it for anything less then £29.99 here where i live, now if they did do a deal on that i would jump on it!

 

i like this so far a lot. it's kind of like Steam has two big sales every year: the christmas sale and then, conveniently 6-ish months later, another one.

 

The one on Steam is the "complete" package which includes Special Forces, the ones you'll see in-store are likely just BF2. IMO SF is not worth the additional $20, but the lowest I've seen it go on sale is $12 (at which point I got several copies).

 

L4D2 Is 33% off, at 20.03... good enough for me to purchase

 

If you have friends who also want it, you could check the 4pack at 60.29, you'll save even more if you split the cost between you and 3 friends .

 

Picked up
Star Wars: The Force Unleashed for 7 bucks on Saturday through Steam. Not a bad deal and its a pretty good game!

 

It was 10 like 1 or 2 days ago on a daily deal
